Wind Scratch Remedy?


The practitioner usually uses a coin and hot ointment, and scrapes the back and sides of the spine. Said to be useful for colds and flu, body aches, and muscle aches. Does anyone know the origin of this ancient remedy and are there any scientific studies on this remedy. I read that it kind of works like acupuncture and moxibustion.

It works best on muscle and body aches. It dates back to ancient China and they used the purest gold and silver coins.
